Sleep was initially performed at the Berkeley Art Museum in 2011. In Vancouver, the piece will be performed in an abandoned polar bear enclosure—a space decommissioned in 1996 following the closure of the Vancouver Zoo. The enclosure is located just south of the Vancouver Aquarium in Stanley Park off Avison Way (map).

This is a free performance and space will be extremely limited.

Record Release

Thursday’s performance coincides with the release of SLEEP (Fragment), a new 12” record by Grouper, published by Fillip in an edition of 800 on 180 gsm white vinyl. A limited number of advanced copies of the record will be available for purchase at the performance.

An after party and record release will be hosted by Solder and Sons following Thursday’s performance.
